Hey guys! After getting out of the military and coming back from overseas, the itch to get another H/O was overwhelming. Picked this beauty a few weeks ago in Missouri and drove it back to OKC without issue. All original, everything works except the radio, and it has the limited slip rear end. Can anyone give me any leads on how to get the original radio to work again?

Welcome home!

First check the fuses.

But if its lighting up but not working (no sound) the amp is blown or one of the capacitors has popped.

Have it rebuilt or replaced

Welcome back!

Nice looking H/O.

PM me your snail mail address. I have a small token welcome home gift for you that's 83/84 Hurst/Olds related.

Unfortunately, it's not a radio. But I concur with what Turna said.

Nice H/O, did it come with the original wheels? The Dazzlers do look very nice and might fool the casual onlooker. I would have the radio rebuilt and add an auxiliary input or go with one of the stock looking modern aftermarket replacements. The 84's radio was a massive improvement over the 83's old twin post for sound and had a digital display.
